Welcome to the material that has been created to help support the face-to-face workshop to support the development of the heart failure pathway in Tameside and Glossop.

Don't worry if you can't cover all of this material before the workshop - we will be highlighting key concepts in the workshop.

• In the first section, we focus on the systems in use today for coding clinical information. We all know that the actual situation is much more complex - and that information is captured in many different ways in the different sections of the pathway, in many cases still in the form of written notes. However, we are hoping this section might cover some information on the ways in which data is captured in some of the informatics systems in use in the pathway. 
• In the second section we discuss the toolkits we will be using in the workshop.
• For anyone who is interested, we've added a third section covering the history of clinical coding
